Praying for the nations and governments of the world is neither secondary nor an afterthought as instructed by the letter of apostle Paul. The magnitude of this assignment is often understated and the originality thereof is almost lost to present day Christians. Every government matters to their citizens including Christians in every nation. They can impact our peace and prosperity, they can influence our liberty in spreading the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. Sharing the gospel was almost brought to a halt during the recent lockdown. Thank God, the siege ended as we prayed. Government officials like any other leader can be targeted by invisible forces as explained in this book just to afflict the citizens of the nation. Mankind is God's choice to ascertain that we lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. Remember this about prayer, "No nation was born a super-nation (God's Own Country, ) but every nation has a super God." He is the governor among the nations of the earth (Psalm 22:28.) May our nations rise out of obscurity as we pray and may God's will prevail on all fronts!
